Forget Jerseys: This Is What People Are Actually Wearing to Celebrate the World Cup

If you want to instantly elevate a casual vibe, an all-black palette is always the answer. The crowd proved that texture play is everything when you strip away color.

High-Contrast Minimalism

Leandra Cohen mastered the art of a classy, minimalist look. She went for chic black pants paired with a low-back silk top that tied with a beautiful, romantic bow in the back. To break up the monochrome, she added a bold, pop-of-color orange clutch and a delicate gold upper-arm cuff. It’s the perfect inspiration for a watch-party-turned-dinner-date.

Matrix-Core Edge

Polina Isadora went for a total girl boss look in a full black outfit. She created the matrix look with the Carmela Leather Trench, cinched at the waist, and paired it with tall leather boots. She finished it off with a classic Prada purse with gold hardware and ultra-tiny black glasses (which are honestly the cutest accessory whether you actually need them or not!).

If there is one major takeaway from this event, it’s that luxurious suede jackets are the perfect layering jacket for any outfit - from baggy jeans to leather skirts. 

The Suede Sister Takeover

The cutest sister duo, Caroline and Victoria Jelert, both showed out in Mackage suede jackets, demonstrating two totally different ways to style them.

One sister opted for the Taupe Suede Jacket, effortlessly contrasting its casual feel with a metallic snakeskin midi skirt and tall black boots. The other sister went for the Umber SENKA-SU Patch Pocket Suede Jacket, pairing it with oversized, bug-eyed sunnies, low-rise white flare jeans, and black leather ballet flats (the ballet flat trend isn’t leaving anytime soon!) 

Downtown Romanticism

Hedi Stanton delivered that 90’s artist look, going for a sultry all-black look. She wore a sleek black leather skirt with a dramatic, deep-V halter top and tall black open-toed heels. To soften up the edgy leather, she draped the Taupe Suede Jacket from Mackage over her shoulders and accessorized with a gorgeous statement purse adorned with 3D red roses.

Denim is a staple for any casual event, but these looks showed us how to take jeans to a much more editorial level via unique details and unexpected footwear.

The Ultimate Bestie Style Duo

Jordan and Abi completely crushed it as a duo, both wearing elevated denim jeans. Jordan Paltrow served pure 2000s nostalgia, wearing military-inspired denim, with button-side detailing down the legs. She balanced the jeans with a flared brown leather jacket, a nylon Prada purse, and a bright flash of color via Y2K orange heeled boots. Abi Hoffman took a more modern approach, pairing dark-wash, cuffed baggy jeans with the Umber SENKA-SU Patch Pocket Suede Jacket. The genius is in the accessories: she finished the look with deer-print kitten heels and a big chain-link Chanel purse.

An Accessory Summer 

Another girl completely nailed the casual-chic mix by pairing mid-rise skater jeans (featuring a cool raw-edge cuff) with ultra-feminine details. She styled the loose denim with delicate black Chanel flats, a deep-cut black tank top, and an earthy olive-green jacket detailed with heavy gold buttons. To tie it all together, she carried a super fun, structured purse shaped like a Chinese takeaway container with a bamboo handle.

So, the next time you're heading out to watch a game, feel free to leave the jersey in the closet—New York just officially gave you permission to dress up instead.
